The beginner's ZX Spectrum

Here's something for the poor souls that missed the ridiculously popular 8-bit wonder that was the Sinclair ZX Spectrum (Wikipedia entry). It's a boxed ZX Sinclair 48k coming with the original cables, a few books and some sweet retro games & apps. Only problem is the keyboard isn't particularly functional (most keys don't work) and will be needing a replacement membrane. Guess you can handle this? Nice, have a look at the auction over at the ebay UK then. Seller ships worldwide, mind you.

    A joint venture by Mr. Gnome and Mr. Elderly! Splendid!

    Shall I put the kettle on or should we crack open a bottle of the hard stuff?

    *FK hands out finest Cuban cigars...*

    Congratulations on a wonderful idea...

    Oh and BTW how do you invite someone to become a team member on your blog? I want to sign up rising retro blogging superstar young Caleb before anyone else snaps him up...
